Television series (two TV series from the 1980's)
Sample Text by Mathew Bailey
December 2013,a few days before Christmas. Esteban,Zia & Tao just arrived in the Tunnels.
They were in the Library & main chambers where most of the Tunnel people & Helpers were gathered conversing
with each other making preparations concerning Winterfest & Christmas.
They were helping others prepare gifts & were also helping with the Winterfest candles.
Esteban,Zia & Tao heard about Winterfest & Christmas,but they didn't know what they were about,
so at an opportunity,the three twelve year old children decided to ask Vincent.
"Vincent,do you know what Winterfest & Christmas are really about?" Esteban asked with Zia & Tao
standing next to Vincent & Esteban. "All that I,Zia & Tao have heard about these things is gifts & candles."
Esteban added. "Maybe you heard,Esteban of the the gift & candles,but you might of not heard of what
Winterfest & Christmas truly mean to us & everyone else." Vincent said with a smile.
"And?" Tao asked Vincent "Is there a reason why Winterfest & Christmas is celebrated,Vincent?"
"Well yes." Vincent replied, "Christmas can be a season of great joy. It is a time of God showing His great love for us. It can be a time of healing and renewed strength. You see, Christmas is when we celebrate the birth of the Christ child. God sent His Son, Jesus, into the world to be born. His birth brought great joy to the world. Shepherds, wise men, and angels all shared in the excitement of knowing about this great event. They knew this was no ordinary baby. The prophets had told of His coming hundreds of years before. The star stopped over Bethlehem just to mark the way for those who were looking for this special child."
"What I may not understand," Zia asked,"why this person or baby?"Vincent replied, "Sometimes,this world is
cruel & hard. Jesus' story is of truth,love & hope to help us deal with the things that are sometimes harsh & cruel."
Vincent replied.
"What abut Winterfest? What or why about the candles?" Tao asked.
Vincent replied with "It's because we are all part of one another: one family, one community. Sometimes we forget this, and so we meet here each year to give thanks to those who have helped us and to remember:
Even the greatest darkness is nothing, so long as we share the light."
"That's what Winterfest & Christmas are about?" "Yes,fortunately,Esteban." Vincent said with a smile.
The evening of Christmas Day & Winterfest-Everyone aws gathered outside the doors to the Great Hall.
(Adding the characters from Ghostbusters & Real Ghostbusters here)
All four Ghostbusters,Winston,Ray,Peter & Egon arrived at the front of the line.
"Sorry about the time we took,we had an issue on our hands with a ghost."Winston Zeddemore mentioned with the Ghostbusters' companion ghost Slimer hovering next to them.
"Of course,Vincent do you know about a person & your enemy,Paracelsus?"Egon asked.
Vincent's eyes momentarily diverted his attention to the Ghostbusters.
"Well anyway,we saw what was.."Ray Stantz said
"His ghost,but no need to worry,Vincent,Paracelsus is spending time in our Ecto Containment Unit."Peter Venkman mentioned.
"Thanks to Slimer who saw him first." Ray added.
A sigh of relief could be heard amongst everyone else.
All four Ghostbusters with their proton packs & uniforms on stood at the doors to the Great Hall as they slowly began to open.
